(small number in millimeters), the image will be dim
and the range of sharp focus will be small.

eyepiece with long focal length (low magnification).
Dividing the focal length of the telescope by the focal
length of the eyepiece gives the magnification.
Example: Calculating the eyepiece magnification of a telescope
with 1000mm focal length.
Eyepiece Focal length of telescope ÷ Focal length of eyepiece ＝ Magnification

Focusing the Telescope
Look into the eyepiece. The image will likely be out of
focus at first. Turn the focus knob slowly clockwise or
counterclockwise to find a point where the image in
the field of view of the eyepiece becomes sharpest.
